Chapter 825

During the day when Guan Yu led his army to attack Li Zhongkai's army, Tie Pohan led more than 30,000 elite troops under his command to attack Luer City a hundred miles away. On the morning of that day, Tie Pohan obtained the exact information that there was no main force of the Qin army in Luer City. The main force of the Qin army went south a few days ago, and there were only more than 10,000 infantry in Luer City. Tie Pohan felt tricked and was immediately angry and ordered people to send messages to Li Zhongkai and Li Muqing respectively, and then led the army to Luer City and launched a fierce attack.

After one day, Goguryeo's offensive was extremely fierce. Goguryeo's army attacked the city many times, but in the end they were desperately overwhelmed by the Qin army. The Qin army and Goguryeo's army fought bloody wars, sprinkled with blood on the top of the city. Their fearless aura was very different from the usual performance of the Seventh Army. It turned out that more than 10,000 Qin troops left in Luer City were all the most elite troops in the Seventh Army.

The golden bell in the Goguryeo army finally rang, and the Goguryeo army that had been attacking for a whole day retreated like a tide. Soon, the battlefield where the sound of killing sounds shook the sky suddenly became silent, a bright moon hangs high in the sky, and under the snow-white moonlight, the sky and the earth are covered with a bleak dark red.

As soon as Tie Pohan returned to the tent, he asked the messenger beside him: "There is news from General Li Zhongkai and the orders of His Majesty."

The messenger shook his head and said, "No!"

Tie Pohan frowned, walked to the map frame, looked at the map and asked, "Where should Li Zhongkai and the others be?"

A general immediately pointed to Gujing Town a hundred miles south of Luer City and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, General Li and his team should be camping in Gujing Town now!"

Tie Pohan immediately searched the information about Gujing Town in his mind and said with some confusion: "Gujing Town is only more than twenty miles away from Huge Ge Pass, and the terrain around Gujing Town and the distance to Huge Ge Pass is flat, so the Qin army is unlikely to take action here!" Then his eyes fell on the map, moved upward from the direction of Gujing Town, and landed dozens of miles north of Gujing Town. Tie Pohan pointed there and said decisively: "If the Qin army wants to attack Li Zhongkai, they will definitely take action here!" He paused, frowned and said in a deep voice: "I won't want it for long, and we will receive relevant information!"

"General, if so~" a general wanted to speak but stopped.

Tie Pohan shouted unhappily: "If you have something to say!"

"Yes. General, if General Li Zhongkai's troops are completely wiped out, we~~~"

As soon as these words were said, everyone was stunned.

Tie Pohan frowned and said, "If what you said happens, we can only survive!!" The scene was silent and the atmosphere was very depressing.

Tie Pohan glanced at the generals and said confidently: "This will never happen! Guan Yu can only invest 60,000 troops in battle, and Li Zhongkai has 100,000 people under his command. No matter how powerful Guan Yu is, how could he annihilate Li Zhongkai?"

When all the generals heard Tie Pohan say this, they couldn't help but feel relieved.

Tie Pohan arranged the night patrol matters and then dispersed the account.

The exhausted Qin army soldiers leaned on the wall to rest, facing the sea of ​​blood in front of them, with a numb expression. Some soldiers were talking in a low voice. "Brother, do you think we can stand it?" A young soldier asked a soldier next to him with a relatively smart look. The older soldier smacked his lips and shook his head. The young soldier was shocked, "Brother, you say we can't stand it!" The voice couldn't help but rise a little. The company commander glared and said, "What are you calling! I mean I don't know!" The young soldier was speechless.

Pei Yuanshao walked on the top of the city with several personal soldiers, frowned, and there was a hint of worry in his eyes. "General, the casualties have been counted." A lieutenant came to Pei Yuanshao to report the report. Pei Yuanshao nodded and signaled to the other party to continue. The lieutenant continued: "In today's battle, our army had more than 3,500 casualties, and the enemy's casualties were about 5,000!"

Pei Yuanshao asked, "Is there any news about the general?" The captain shook his head and said, "Not yet."

Pei Yuanshao ordered: "A message about the general, report it immediately!" "Yes!"

In the early morning, Tie Pohan, who was sleeping heavily, was awakened by his personal soldiers.

"What's the matter?" Tie Pohan, who was awakened by the noise, asked angrily.

The personal soldier said anxiously: "It's not good!! General Li Zhongkai was wiped out in Gujing Town!!" As he said that, he presented a short note with both hands.

"What!" Tie Pohan was shocked, suddenly stood up, grabbed the short note from his personal soldiers, looked carefully, and said in a deep voice: "How could this happen?" He paused and ordered: "Beat the drum and raise the tent!" "Yes!"

The gathering of drums beside the big tent sounded, which made the smell of anxiety.

In a moment, the generals and officials of various departments rushed to the tent.

"General, what big thing happened when we were so anxious to gather the generals?" a general couldn't help but ask. Everyone stared at Tie Pohan with concern.

Tie Pohan Yang Yang said in a deep voice: "This is the flying pigeon letter from General Li Zhongkai that I just received~" paused, "A hundred thousand people under General Li Zhongkai were raided by Guan Yu's troops last night and were wiped out! Only hundreds of people including Li Zhongkai escaped by luck!"

The generals under the tent immediately felt a thunderous bang on their foreheads.

"General, this is true" a general asked in disbelief.

Tie Pohan nodded, "The secret traces of General Li Zhongkai are on the letter, so it will definitely not be fake!"

The big tent was immediately in full swing, and the generals were talking at a loss.

Tie Pohan frowned and shouted: "What kind of morality is so panicked!"

The generals' hearts were terrified and they immediately calmed down.

Tie Pohan glanced at the generals and said loudly: "Li Zhongkai's troops were wiped out, and our army has lost its advantage. For the sake of the current plan, the only way is to give up attacking Luer City and retreat towards Marundu! Do you have any opinions?"

The generals looked at each other and clasped their fists together and said, "Affect the general's orders!"

"Sentences to all troops and battalions to set out immediately!" "Yes!"

In the early morning, the Qin soldiers on the top of the city suddenly discovered that the Goguryeo army outside the city was actually taking out the camp. A lieutenant immediately reported this situation to Pei Yuanshao. At this time, Pei Yuanshao had received a letter from Guan Yu to him.

Before noon that day, an army under Guan Yu disguised himself as Goguryeo Army and came to Hugemen Pass, trying to open the city gate, but was discovered at the last moment, and the two sides immediately started a bloody melee. When the Qin cavalry was about to arrive, the Qin army that raided was finally forced out of Hugemen Pass because of the huge difference in strength between the two sides.

Guan Yu failed to take down the Huge Gear Pass as he wished, so he had to give up the Huge Gear Pass temporarily and lead the army to march towards Luer City at a rapid speed. Before the evening of that day, the main force led by Guan Yu arrived at Luer City.

Li Muqing, who was far away in Maruntu, received an urgent report from Tie Pohan and was shocked and quickly summoned all the civil and military officials to discuss the matter. The hall was silent, the atmosphere was very depressing, and everyone was even more absent-minded.

"Your Majesty, for the sake of this plan, you can only negotiate peace with the Qin Dynasty!" The national silence finally broke the silence and seemed a little helpless.

Li Muqing was stunned, "Is this the only way to negotiate peace?"

The national teacher said: "Li Zhongkai's 100,000 troops were destroyed, and our current military strength has no advantage over the Qin army! Moreover, the people in China are very tired of war after this period of war, and many forces that were originally loyal to His Majesty are ready to move!"

"What the national teacher said is so true, please think twice!" The old minister in charge of the court etiquette immediately came out and agreed. The old minister was named Li Dongli, and he had three long beards on his jaw. He was very slippery. When Li Muqing entered the main Wandu, he was the first to present his loyalty to Li Muqing. The ministers immediately agreed.

Li Muqing was a little annoyed, but he couldn't get angry. He suddenly stood up and said to the ministers in a deep voice: "I will discuss this matter again! Disperse the court!"

The ministers looked at each other, bowed to Li Muqing, and left the hall. When the national magistrate was about to retreat, they were stopped by Li Muqing.
